Accommodating with our requests and vision for our big day. They helped us achieve what we were looking for and made the day very special. Thanks to you both for making the day so easy!
– Petra & Floyd
Where do we even begin! An absolute must location / package for those wanting a small intimate wedding! Glenn (and the behind the scenes crew) were amazing from the very beginning. We planned our wedding whilst living interstate and both Glenn made this ever so simple and hassle free! The package was affordable and every little detail had been thought of. On the day, met timings perfectly and did this without being in your face during your special day. The planning and coordination was just perfect and everything you can ask for when planning a wedding. Communication throughout was thorough and clear. In addition, all staff were friendly, down to earth and kind – to the extent they just feel like extended friends involved in your day. Would not recommend anyone else!
